After the Love Has Gone

After the love has gone
There's only PASSION 
CRYING at the stoop OF
HEARTS  DENIED

Even if the TEARS are dried
THERE'S  only PASSION
LEFT to tear the EYE.

Although words unspoken 
A soothing kiss, no hearts
Left  UNBROKEN

One shall whisper in the 
Ear of  EVERY LOVER
Tip your  toes here there's
Something to discover.

Beyond the BEACHES 
Something to uncover
SHORE TO SHORE
Stroll along the SANDS 

Grow younger with a stillness 
A quiet, soothing of  the  HEART
Chase the chatter 
Be VALIANT  smell the ATMOSPHERE

Stand,  stand ALONE.
Now soothsayers  QUESTION the 
TIME.
How long?
Chastened the question.
Be STRONG,  PATIENT  BE OF A
heart undenied.

HINDER  THE TEARS
tear  to   tear
A CASTE  AWAY
